Creating Additional Admin Users

Admin users are similar regular system users that have been granted administrative privileges. You can either make a user a "Super Admin" meaning they can change settings on your myTurn account, or you can granted them more limited access to just handling rentals/loans or inventory tasks.

To grant a user administrative privileges:

1. Search for the user and click on the "User Details" link, or simply click on their username most places it appears in the system.
2. This will bring you to their "User Details" page.
3. Click on "Edit Privileges"
4. To allow them to add/edit inventory items and perform maintenance, click on "inventory" on the "All Locations" line; and/or
5. To allow them to handle loans and reservations, click on "Loans" on the All Locations line
   • Note: Loans permission also gives the admin the ability to add/view/edit users (i case someone new comes in or in case their information needs to be updated) and process reservations. See below for more info on Location admins.
6. Then click "Save"
7. Alternately, if you wish to make them a "Super Admin" (all permissions, including to change the settings for your whole organization) just click on "Grant Super Administrator Privileges".

You can also "revoke" privileges from users on the same page.

If your subscription level supports multiple locations (Professional Level and higher), you can grant privileges to users just for a specific location.

Location / Limited Admins

You can grant admins more limited privileges rather than "Super Admin" which has access to everything, including all settings. Limited or "location" admins can be granted the following:

• Inventory: ability to add and edit items as well as, perform maintain and run maintenance history reports.
• Loans: ability to check items in and out, charge fees, process reservations, as well as, view and add new users. 
• Settings
  • Single location sites: ability to export users and certain other reports with user data
  • Multiple location sites: the above, and the ability to change location specific settings including address, hours, closed days and holidays for that one location, and time slots.

Location admins have a more streamlined view and we recommend using these more limited admins for day to day operations. These accounts do not have access to overall organization settings.
